Enduring Fuchsia Crape Myrtle

The Enduring Fuchsia Crape Myrtle is the perfect shrub for summer flowers. Growing between 4 and 6 feet tall, it fits perfectly into shrub beds, and looks spectacular from June to September, sending out an endless succession of flower heads, each one packed with vibrant purple-pink blooms. This powerful color brings your summer garden to life. In spring the new leaves are red, adding early color, and for all those hot and sunny places in your garden, it’s unbeatable.

• Vibrant purple-pink flowers in abundance
• Continues blooming from June into September
• Compact form for shrub borders
• Red spring leaves become deep green in summer
• Perfect for hot, dry places and poor soil

Full sun is all the Enduring Fuchsia Crape Myrtle craves, so avoid any shade. Plant it in any well-drained soil, including poor, dry soils and urban gardens. Once established plants are very drought resistant and thrive in heat and sun. This variety has been bred to be resistant to disfiguring leaf diseases, and is usually left along by both pests and deer. Trim in spring while leafless, for dense, compact growth, but don’t cut leafy branches at all.
